United States Lime & Minerals (US9119221029) stock was trading at EUR 93.25 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026 at 1:08 p.m. CEST. MarketBeat reported that Weiss Ratings upgraded the company from Hold to Buy, while its latest quarterly results missed consensus expectations. The setup combines a positive analyst signal with a clear earnings test.

Three dated events frame the setup

United States Lime & Minerals reported second-quarter revenue of USD 99.13 million and diluted earnings per share of USD 1.20 on July 29, 2026, according to MarketBeat. On August 21, 2026, the company set a USD 0.06 quarterly dividend for shareholders of record. On October 14, 2026, MarketBeat reported the Weiss Ratings upgrade to Buy.

What does the miss mean for margins?

The second-quarter earnings figure missed the USD 1.30 consensus by USD 0.10, even as revenue rose from USD 87.83 million in the first quarter to USD 99.13 million in the second quarter. That combination matters because the 35.00 percent second-quarter net margin shows that profitability remained substantial, but the earnings shortfall places more weight on the next reporting cycle. A separate Basis Report analysis said the second-quarter miss was the third consecutive shortfall against consensus.

Reporting dates are next

MarketWatch lists November 4, 2026 as the date for third-quarter results and January 29, 2027 for the full-year 2026 report. The same page shows a third-quarter earnings-per-share estimate of USD 1.48, giving investors a specific benchmark for the next update.
